Music Song lyric challenge

[Panda280]

I hear the preacher say, "Speak now or forever hold your peace"
There's the silence, there's my last chance
I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me
Horrified looks from everyone in the room
But I'm only looking at you

Taylor Swift - Speak Now

Picture

 

[ReKoil]

A picture tells a thousand words
Some of them were mine
Combing through the evidence
Afraid of what we'll find

The sun could lift us up
Should the thunder ever stop
There's no over, there's no under
There's no shame

Picture of love
We were a picture of love
The measure of our years
So deep and wide

Eddie Vedder & Elton John - Picture


Parade

 

[Curt_09]

Because one day, I'll leave you, a phantom
To lead you in the summer
To join the black parade


Hat

 

[Starlight]

This old man I've talked about
Broke his own heart,
Poured it in the ground
Big red tree grew up and out,
Throws up its leaves,
Spins round and round.
I know all this and more
So take your hat off
When you're talking to me
And be there when I feed the tree

Belly - Feed the Tree


Follow

 

[Panda280]

The more that you say
The less I know
Wherever you stray
I follow
I'm begging for you to take my hand
Wreck my plans
That's my man


Taylor Swift - Willow

Left

 

[Cosmega]

Friends break up, friends get married
Strangers get born, strangers get buried
Trends change, rumors fly through new skies
But I'm right where you left me
Matches burn after the other
Pages turn and stick to each other
Wages earned and lessons learned
But I, I'm right where you left me

Taylor Swift - right where you left me

Faith

 

[CiCi]

I am finally awake
Self realize
I am finally awake
Our lives will fill with hope
I am finally awake
They've only foreshadowed our own
Have faith and you won't be left behind

Aeris by Veil of Maya

Moonlight

 

[Starlight]

Here in the twilight
Under the moonlight
I feel your hungry eyes
Drums in the distance
Echoes of madness
Around the firelight

In the heartbeat of the night

Hey, hey, hey, till the break of day
La lala lalalala lala lala lala
Hey, hey, hey, dance the whole night through
Nothing gets between
The dancer and the moon
Nothing gets between
The dancer and the moon

Blackmore's Night - Dancer and the Moon

One of my favourite songs ❤️


Behind

 

[CiCi]

Now tell me when you start again,
Where will you house your skeletons?
Or will they stay behind,
Your settlement in kind?

Sure, you can forget about all the things you done,
But what about the rest of us? (What about the rest of us?)
Hightail it when it gets to be too much,
But what about the rest of us? (What about the rest of us?)

You can sell us down the river,
Sell us down the river,
You were never the one to suffer

Down the River by The Crane Wives

Crows

 

[Starlight]

The downtown trains are full
Full of all them Brooklyn girls
They try so hard to break out of their little worlds

You wave your hand and they scatter like crows
They have nothing that'll ever capture your heart
They're just thorns without the rose
Be careful of them in the dark

Oh, if I was the one you chose to be your only one
Oh, baby
Can't you hear me now?
Can't you hear me now?

Will I see you tonight on a downtown train?
Every night, every night it's just the same
On a downtown train

Rod Stewart - Downtown Train


This one has been driving me crazy!



Pose

 

[CiCi]

Ingrained, there's hate within us all
Spiraling, I've lost my footing once again
I'm flailing in a tantrum of disgust
When life holds nothing sacred
When the loveless turn to loathe
We'll witness this final threatened pose

Statutory Ape by The Black Dahlia Murder

Dismantling

 

[ReKoil]

Here's a manifesto
born from disapproval
Here's the futurist culmination
A methodical work of ruin and demoralization

I can see no god up here
and I can see no art up here
and I can see no reason here
just clean irrationality

I can see no god up here
and I can see no art up here
and I can see no reason here
just clean irrationality

We reject your reason, we reject your logic

We are here to subvert your traditions
(dismantling your god**** tools)

Black Void ft. Sakis Tolis - Dadaist Disgust


Towards

 

[Starlight]

Darkness darkness, be my pillow
Take my head and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your dream

Darkness darkness, hide my yearning
For the things that cannot be
Keep my mind from constant turning
Towards the things I cannot see now
Towards the things I cannot see now
The things I cannot see now

Darkness darkness, long and lonesome
Is the day brings me here
I have found the edge of sadness
I have known the depths of fear

Darkness darkness, be my blanket
Cover my with the endless night
Take away away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of right now
The emptiness of right now

The Youngbloods - Darkness, Darkness

Their best song imo

Animal

 

[Corrin]

I can feel the animal inside
My resolve is weakening
Pounding at the doors of my mind
It's nearly overpowering
I cannot begin to describe
The hunger that I feel again
Run if you intend to survive
For the beast is coming to life
Taking form in the glimmer of this tainted moonlight
Death approaches on this night

For the animal's soul is mine
We will be completed right before your eyes
I have no control this time
And now we both shall dine in Hell tonight

I can hear it calling again
The primal need is filling me
Changes are about to begin
And now my blood is boiling
I can see the fear in your eyes
But you can't bring yourself to scream
Time to shed the mortal disguise
For the beast is coming to life
Taking form in the glimmer of this tainted moonlight
Death approaches on this night

For the animal's soul is mine
We will be completed right before your eyes
I have no control this time
And now we both shall dine in Hell tonight

We begin the hunt and I
Feel the power course, as the creatures take flight
For the kill is close and I will be satisfied
For the smell of fear tonight
Wakes an ancient lust that will not be denied
You're mine

For the animal's soul is mine
We will be completed right before your eyes
I have no control this time
And now we both shall dine in Hell tonight

For the animal's soul is mine
And the world around will never hear your cries
An unholy crime
And now we both shall dine in Hell tonight

The Animal - Disturbed

Age

 

[ReKoil]

Age of destruction
Age of oblivion
Age of destruction
Age of oblivion

Discovered love
In the rancid days of ruin
My body's sweatin' toxins
Of my own demise
Only from space, can you see
How much earth is burning
Smokin' out the innocense inside the child

it's the age of destruction
In a world of corruption
It's the age of destruction
And they hand us oblivion

Neuromancer and I'm trancing
I'm the Neuromancer and I'm trancing

Billy Idol - Neuromancer

or alternatively:

Spoiler:

I'm thirty-something going on thirteen
Still a sponge to everything
Saucer eyes wide, yeah, I still believe
And a sparkle in my steps
Smiling with my teeth

They say that I might lose my Midas touch
They also say I may become irrelevant
But who the fuck are they anyway?
I don't care what they say

I won't act my age
Time is just an invention man has made
No, I won't act my age
It's just my reflection that is out of date
'Cause it's all in your attitude
It's all in your point of view
I won't act my age just need a little bit of
Peter Pan and some imagination
No, I won't act my age

Katy Perry - Act My Age

Both came to mind at the same time =P


Eternal

 

[Eleanor]

Can you hear me say your name– forever?
Can you see me longing for you– forever?
Would you let me touch your soul– forever?
Can you feel me longing for you– forever, forever?
I know the light grows darker down below
But in your eyes, it's gone before you know
This is the moment of just letting go
She said, "If you had life eternal..."

Ghost - Life Eternal ♥

Snare (this will be fun)

 

[ReKoil]

I retired my red lipstick 'cause you said you didn't like it
I didn't wear my high heel shoes
'Cause I couldn't be taller than you
I didn't wanna lose my friends, but now it's hard to even find them
It's what you wanted, ain't it?
It's what you wanted

I thought I'd miss you (when it ended)
I thought it hurt me (but it didn't)
I thought I'd miss you
I thought I'd miss you

But I miss me more
I miss my own beat, to my own snare drum
I miss me more
Miss my own sheets in the bed I made up
I forgot I had dreams, I forgot I had wings
Forgot who I was before I ever kissed you
Yeah, I thought I'd miss you
But I miss me more (I miss me more)

Kelsea Ballerini - Miss Me More

Quality

 

[Starlight]

Now, friends ask what do I see in you
But it goes deeper than the eye can view
You have a pleasing personality
And that's an ever lovin' rare quality
Now, show me a girl, a girl that's fine
And I'll choose the one with true lovin' ev'ry time
'Cause I know that beauty's only skin deep
And I believe that (yeah yeah yeah)
Beauty's only skin deep
Oh yeah
So if you're lookin' for a lover
(Oh, yeah) don't judge a book by its cover
(Oh yeah) she may be fine on the outside
(Oh yeah) but so untrue on the inside

The Temptations - Beauty Is Only Skin Deep

I can neither confirm or deny that it was written about me


Swimming

 

[ReKoil]

Dream me to life
Write our names in the pillow skies
We can meet in our minds
If our days count us out of time

And we'll stay alive
In seas of city lights
Where you and I collide

So let's go
Swimming in the stars tonight
Oh, and we'll glow
And shimmer in the diamond lights
We'll dive in
Head first, all the way down
In gravity's arms we'll drown
The world is ours
When we're swimming in the stars
When we're swimming in the stars

Britney Spears - Swimming In The Stars

Voices

 

[Starlight]

There's fire in the rain
But we'll get up again
We're thousand miles apart
But we'll overcome

I'll never let you down
World is turning us around
But I feel it in my heart
Let's make a brand new start

Can't stop us now forget the haters
Get up and live and make it matter
There's more to life so go ahead and
sing it out

Can you hear a million voices
Calling out in the rain
You know we got a million choices
So go get out and let it rain

Tusse - Voices
